The Baltimore-based ice cream making Taharka Bros. will be serving up socio-politically inspired sweets at Recess DC Tuesday night in the hopes of putting a cherry on top of a Kickstarter campaign geared toward landing them a food truck.

The “Ice Cream for Change” tasting is scheduled from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Recess DC (727 15th St. NW). Admission is free, but promoters are suggesting donations of $20 in order to help the entrepreneurs reach their $28,000 fundraising goal. A donation of $50 entitles guests to open bar access from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Although still a young company, the TB brand already extends beyond Charm City, including standing orders for their signature gourmet ice creams at Eatonville restaurant and the various Busboys and Poets outposts surrounding our area.

TB has also participated in the now-annual DC Scoop competition and plans to face off against fellow frozen treat purveyors later this month.
